Patent GB-0523776-D0 (GB)
Title: Multimedia computer system and method
Filed: 2005-11-22
Abstract: A multimedia computer system and method is disclosed. A medium device of the computer system, like an optical disc loader, has a built-in function of multimedia decoding for supporting the computer system to work under a normal mode and a playback mode. In the normal mode, the medium device does not decode, and north/south bridges of the computer arrange data exchange and access between the medium device, a CPU, and a memory of the computer system. In the playback mode, the medium device performs multimedia decoding itself for obtaining video data from the medium, and the video data are sent to a display of the computer system by the north bridge. Therefore, in this playback mode, other circuits like the south bridge, CPU and memory can be powered down to an idle status, and a low power consumption multimedia broadcast is realized.

Title: Thermal camouflage
IPC: F41H3/02
Filed: 1983-12-30
Abstract: The invention relates to a thermal camouflage comprising a strengthening layer (4), e.g. a woven material, on which a polyethylene film layer (1), metallized on one side, has been laminated with the aid of fusion adhesive (3). On lamination the surface is embossed such as to make it mat. Since the polyethylene is transparent for infrared, it has low self-radiation. By means of the metal layer (2) there is obtained radiation insulation so that the outer layer (1) is in a thermal equilibrium which is hardly affected, e.g. by a warm object which is covered with the material, and the outer layer has a low emission ability of about 0.6-0.8, depending on thickness and pigmentation. By applying further layers (5), patchy images may be obtained with infrared reproduction in the wavelength ranges of 3-5  mu m and 8-14  mu m.

Title: Indication of spacing between articles
IPC: B65G43/08
Filed: 1987-02-07
Abstract: A succession of tins (A) to (F) move along a conveyor in the direction of an arrow (10). The tins each cross a beam emitted by a photocell (12). As the tins pass the beam from the photocell (12), the photocell is able to register either that a tin is blocking the beam or that there is no tin blocking the beam. A stream of pulses (14) are continually emitted, the frequency of which is proportional to the speed of the conveyor. When the photocell (12) detects that a tin is present, a counter counts alternate pulses, and the same counter counts every pulse when no tin is sensed. The combined count from the alternate pulses, when a tin is sensed, and each pulse, when a tin is not sensed, is compared with a predetermined value, and if the count is below the predetermined value an indication is given that the tins in their relative position are too close together.

Title: A motor vehicle door lock
Inventor: BUSCHER HANS-JOACHIM
IPC: B60J5/00
Filed: 1995-07-26
Abstract: A motor-vehicle door latch has a housing, a lock fork on the housing engageable with a door bolt, and a release pawl engageable with the fork. An actuating mechanism is connected to the release pawl via a coupling part displaceable on the housing so that in a decoupling position of the part actuation of the actuating mechanism does not affect the release pawl. A central locking element is displaceable on the housing generally parallel to a predetermined direction, is formed with a cutout opening transversely of the direction and having locking and unlocking flanks directed oppositely at least generally in the direction, and is formed to each side of the cutout with an abutment surface directed generally perpendicular to the direction. A locking mechanism jointly movable with the locking element is connected between the central locking element and the coupling part for displacing the coupling part into the decoupling position on displacement of the central locking element into its locked position and for displacing the coupling part into the coupling position on displacement of the central locking element into the unlocked position. A drive body rotatable about a drive axis has an eccentric pin formation defining on rotation of the drive body an orbit lying partially inside and partially outside the cutout. A reversible electric motor rotates the drive body and thereby orbits the pin formation about the drive axis.
